Lupe Fiasco - Coming Up

Lupe:
If you feelin good, lemme hear you see alright, alright!
Ant whattup!
Alright
Pooh Bear!
I’m feelin good so I'mma say it myself
Alright, alright
Claudio
Alright
So how we gon do this one?

[Verse 1]
This one goes out to the baby girls, in a rush growin up in this crazy world
Yeah your brother on the road, and he never home
I know you’re feelin kinda sad now that daddy gone
You can’t let it get you down, gotta carry on
We only lose things because it make us strong
You always have my love, and now you got a song
From the biggest biggest fan that you’ve ever known
I know you won’t be little girls, not for very long
And you ain’t gotta have a man if you don’t ever want
Cause I'mma make sure you got to of everything that you ever want
Every tone of your very own
Not gon make you hard to respect, just really, really, really, really hard to impress
It’s a whole wide world for you to go and get your hands on
Until then, come and get your dance on now!

[Chorus - MDMA]
I see you comin up
I'mma give you the low down, down, down
You ain't ever gotta worry bout nothing
Just as long as I’m around, round, round, round

[Verse 2]
This for everybody feelin good
You know who you are, or you’re misunderstood
Never had money, or you livin good
If you from the burbs, if you’re in the hooood
Recognize where we come from
In my day mayne, I did a lil sumn sumn
They like, how come you don’t rap that?
Cause that’s a backtrack and I ain’t tryna backpack
I’m only movin forward, homie that’s that
Direction, a lotta shawtys lack that
I’m just tryna give it to em like Satnav
Not knowin I might make it like a fat rat
That’s cool, as long as they don’t trap crack
Graduate from school and still let his pants sag
Never catch a case, know how the ladies catch that
Welcome to the map though
Any way you tap that

[Chorus - MDMA]
I see you comin up
I'mma give you the low down, down, down
You ain't ever gotta worry bout nothing

Just as long as I’m around, round, round, round

[Bridge - MDMA]
If you fall down, imma be there to carry you
And if you want that star, I’ll go get it out the sky for you
If you gotta shed a tear, I'mma dry your eyes
Just to let you know, it’ll be alright

[Verse 3]
I know it’s like a whole lot goin on
Things goin right, things goin wrong
Maybe baby on the way, you for so long
Know that in this world, you’re never really on your own
God got a number get Him on the phone
He’ll never put you in places where you don’t belong
Put you through the pain to put you on the throne
And I know that from the bottom of my corazon
And if they lookin at you sideways
You just wave right back and tell em hi Hay
Mad you ain’t hangin with em in the driveway
Nah, we gon keep it movin to the highway
Strongest putting on. The weak (week) is all over like Friday, Chillin'
Shout to King David for bringin a new villain
And all my pretty independent women in the building, let's go!

[Chorus - MDMA] x2
I see you comin up
Imma give you the low down, down, down
You ain't ever gotta worry bout nothing

Just as long as I’m around, round, round, round
